Not much going on right now. I figured I would show you all the impending Christmas pics for the cards. Like I said earlier, I do not want this blog to just become a blog about my kid. I would like it, however, to still include blatantly kid related posts. I just want to write about other stuff as well. Today, since I am a rather boring individual, I will be focusing on my kid. Deal with it.
For the Christmas cards this year we have decided to print out 3 different and very distinct card variations. We will be sending out this smattering of cards to everyone as soon as we get them all printed out. Hopefully that will be tomorrow evening at latest. Without further ado the pictures:
Number 1.
The first picture is of our wonderful Little Man running full speed at the camera. It is, as they say, an action shot. Little Man is quite the energetic little cuss when it comes to running around and yelling “FREE, FREE, FREE!!!” especially at grocery stores.
Number 2.
The second picture is of Little Man helping us to decorate the tree. He is a helpful little cuss as well. I believe he has just taken off an ornament and put it on 4 times. Same branch, same ornament, 4 times.
Number 3.
The third picture is of our smiling little one. He is happy. “Why is he happy?” you ask, well, he has been shoveling homemade salsa into his face like there is no tomorrow. I believe at this moment he was on his third small bowl of the stuff. I swear he could eat his body weight in tomatoes, if we would let him. We try not to let him, but we also try not to let him run willy nilly through the grocery store yelling “FREE!” We try many things, but succeed at few. I had to digitally remaster this pic due to the vast amounts of cilantro on his chin and cheeks. I am a regular Photoshop wizard.
To Recap:
Something interesting needs to happen at work so I can talk about that
It has to be interesting, but not get me fired
Can someone please work on that?
My life is rather boring
Boring can be good
In this case, it is just boring
I promise I will have something more enjoyable to read tromorrow
Some of you may be seeing these pics soon
Most of you are seeing them now, actually
What I meant was that some of you will get hard copies from us, on our dime soon, with the cards
I am shutting up now

Little Man is looking pretty darn cute.
The ornament-on ornament-off trick must be one of those skills these little ones learn in fetus school, because in my experience, they all do it.
My littlest one was especially good at the off part.
What a gorgeous little guy! That first picture is just about the best xmas card photo I can imagine - very nice!
Very cute pictures. I don't have kids & probably never will so I can live vicariously for a few moments every once in a while.
what a cutie!! i like the second one the best!!! i'm making our Christmas card this years as well. i'm supposedto being doint that this weekend..i hope my pics come out as good as yours!! i hope little man feels better.
stolled on from another blog!
Those are great photos. Did you take them in color or B&W? The quality looks like soemthing out of a coffee table book.

Peefer:
Did the kids come out with a manual of things they were supposed to do? Cause it seems that all kids do the same thing. If they got a manual and I didn't...
Jenny:
We are quite fond of the first pic as well. It captures his energy quite well.
NYM:
Let me be someone with kids who tells you that it is more than okay to never have one of those little people. They are a shit-ton of work, and don;t let anyone tell you otherwise.
Jaimie:
He gets the cute from his mom, he gets the hairline from his dad.
Koolbreeze:
the second is definitely the most christmassy, he is doing better now, thanks for stopping by
Nadolny:
Color digital pics that have been photoshopped significantly.
Pic 1: some serious color correction and image sharpenning
Pic 2: color corrections and narrow feild of focus applied
pic 3: removed the magnets from the fridge and cilantro from his mouth.
There is a trick to the process that makes them look like actual B&W photos and not just grayscale pics, I might tell you graphic designer wife about it some day.
